Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 'Periscopia'
Dave B posted a topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Well, I have finally finished the 3D filament Tipo 33 my mate printed for me. I had to do a bit of extra work because I failed to give him an accurate height for the body, nothing a bit of styrene and Milliput epoxy putty couldn't fix. I know you can buy these from the likes of MFH but I really enjoy the work required to build a reasonably accurate model from just a body. I used the wheels from a Tamiya GTAm but the rest is from my parts box. I vacformed the windscreen and headlight covers and finished the model in an acrylic red I mixed and then clear coated. The model is relective of the Tipo 33 that ran at the 1967 Nurburgring 1000 and failed to finish. Not an exact replica but looks good in the display cabinet!! Now on to my printed Maserati Tipo 151/3. Tks for looking. Dave B -

Great build Rich, I do like the 1/20th scale F1's but really don't need another scale to build. Dave B -
Maserati A6GCS/53 - 1954 Mille Miglia
Dave B replied to Bernard Kron's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Hi Bernard, that's a nice build of an unusual subject. Love Maserati's, having built 2xTipo 61, 1x450S, 1x250F, 1x8CTF, 1x3500GT and a Merak, don't suppose you put it into silicon before building it? Dave B -
Another flawless build Baek, I love your choice of interesting models. Dave B

Alfa Tipo 33 (Periscopia)
Dave B posted a topic in WIP: Other Racing: Road Racing, Land Speed Racers
My mate came good and filament 3D printed a body for me. I had given him the scale length and width but not, unfortunately the depth, and I ended up with something reminiscent of a late 60's Tamiya slot car body. He did offer to print me another but I thought I could remedy this one by increasing the depth and at the same time fixing a few other issues. I was lucky as it came with a 3D printed windscreen mould, which I have coated in epoxy and is ready to sand smooth, and an additional tail as the rear panel of the body had not printed very well. I have started going through my resin box for the other parts I need. Tks for looking. Dave B -
Great building Thomas, it is a great looking Group C car, just a pity they were not more successful. Dave B

That's a nice build Brian, I also cannot understand why Revell did not release a D type especially with all the options available and the fact the real car was commonly raced in the USA. I'll just have to make do with my Lindberg and Merit versions, basic though they are. Dave B

That is a great build Baek, I love the chrome bumper B GT and you have nailed it. Dave B -
FIA 289 Cobra
Dave B replied to Rich Chernosky's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Hi Rich, that's a nice build but it leaves me confused. It looks like a 427 body but with 289 font suspension and wheels from the Sunny kit. Dave B -
Nice conversion Spence, the convertible is very attractive and I really should by a coupe and convert it, it would go with my existing coupe nicely. Dave B

That looks suitably 'period' Ken. Dave B
